Hey folks,

OK - I'll admit, I'm quite a beginner in this jQuery-department. I've probably made some amateur mistake, but hey, you gotta learn somewhere! :)

So I'm using jScrollPane: http://www.kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/jScrollPane/jScrollPane.html

I want to use it style the scrollable area in my second column. Specifically, I would like to apply and format the scrollbars on the div #ajaxresults

My page is... rather jQuery heavy. I don't know if any variables are conflicting or something... in fact I really have no idea at all why this isn't working.

Take a look at my problematic page: http://furnace.howcode.com

In the header, I've set this to go:

    <!-- Includes for jScrollPane --> 
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:8888/js/jquery.mousewheel.min.js"></script> 
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:8888/js/jScrollPane.js"></script> 
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="http://localhost:8888/stylesheets/jScrollPane.css" /> 
<script type="text/javascript"> 
$(function() {
    $('#ajaxresults').jScrollPane();
});
</script> 

(I've changed localhost on the server copy though)

Nothing ever seems to work with the #ajaxresults div. I've set, as the jScrollPane docs say, overflow:auto on it but still no luck. I find that when jScrollPane DOES seem to 'run' it just moves the div down about 100 pixels. Try it for yourself.

Perhaps someone could help? There's quite a few jQuery plugins there so I don't know if something's colliding/crashing etc...

Please note the site is still in development between myself and a friend, which explains the personal messages we submit to each other ('Hi Donnie!' etc. :D ). Also, when you view the page nothing may appear in the second column for a few seconds - it's just fetching the data via Ajax. So give it a little time.

Thanks very much!

Jack
